  • In the first episode, referee Matthew Capodicasa takes players Sydney Amanuel, Skid Maher, Alicia Marie and Seth Skorkowsky through Traveller's famed character creation system, building the lives of our crew together. Plans go awry, careers get discarded, dreams are abandoned and no one ends up where they expected.

    Voyagers of the Jump is an original adventure using the 2022 2E Update to the Traveller RPG rules set by Mongoose Publishing.
    First published in 1977, Traveller is a science fiction RPG in the vein of The Expanse or Battlestar Galactica. Most who played the original game back in the day remember the robust character creation system where if you push too far and get unlucky with the dice, you can die before you even start playing.

    This character creation seems so good. The way that it takes the players control away from aspects of their own backstory makes their story so much more believable. In real life things don't always go the way we expect or want them to, and it translates that into the game really well.

      There's a nice mix of randomness and choice. I suspect over the years people have devised their own versions for non Traveller RPGs. I suspect it would work quite well for Call Of Cthulhu characters

    • @owenf5222
      @owenf5222 8 месяцев назад +4

      It’s very much that when you start character creation, you have already started playing the game. You look at your abilities and what you want, you decide what you want to try to do and roll the dice to see how well your character accomplishes their goal. It’s the same process as any other action in the game, just over a larger time scale.

And is best described as a ‘determinator eeyore.

    One of the best, and for some tables most terrifying thing about Traveller is its sheer scope ! It is massive, and the Imperium's level of tech can be mind boggling -- but remember its size is ultimarely what gives the GM and your table the flexibility to tell any, and I do mean 'ANY' kind of scifi story -- the Imperium is so big - that it can comfortably exist within it! As for characters -- say goodby to the wide eyed 18 year old (though you can try that too if you want) - but normally the characters are nicely seasoned, averaging late 20s to late 50s in age :O Gotta love it!
